Concession tickets to Alan Bennet's Enjoy - revival from 1980. It has some excellent moments - the very funny worrying about whether the husband is actually dead as they begin to lay him out as there appears to be "evidence both ways" - and some interesting questions re authenticity, but overall it's not nearly as good as the more recent plays. Encouraging, I suppose, to think someone writes better in his 60's and 70's than in his 40's.
